“the littlest birds sing the prettiest songs” -the be good tanyas

a duo

My husband and I recently played a few songs at an evening event at Mina’s Beana’s in Siler City. It was well past Rowan’s bedtime and he was wanting to be close to his mama. Teary eyed, I took him in my arms and sat him in between me and my guitar. He immediately calmed down and layed his head on my chest. He stayed that way the entire time we played. It reminded me of the days when I was pregnant and playing shows with a four piece band. I remember thinking about how amazing it was that my baby was experiencing the songs while in utero. I imagine that feeling the vibration of my guitar and my voice brought him great comfort that night. There on my lap with guitar and all, he and I were perfectly content.
